Will Arizona follow Georgia on voting restrictions?

Georgia became one of the first states to pass a voting restriction
law after the 2020 election on March 25. The bill includes new
changes like shortening the window to request an absentee ballot,
requiring more than a signature on mail-in ballots and making
it illegal to hand out water to voters in line.  Arizona is
considered one of the next states to possibly follow and implement
similar laws. Senate Bill 1485 proposes getting rid of the
permanent early voting list which is used by most voters. Senate
Bill 1713 adds an identification card requirement along with a
signature to verify a ballot.  Both of these have the broader
electorate asking if Arizona could be the next Georgia. The Arizona
GOP pushed back on voting fairness after President Joe Biden won
the state by the narrowest margin in the country, but now one of
the state's most influential business groups, Greater Phoenix
Leadership, is urging the GOP to resist changes to the election
process.  In this week's episode of The Gaggle: An Arizona
politics podcast, hosts Yvonne Wingett Sanchez and Ronald J.
Hansen talk with Sonja Diaz, the Founding Director of the
Latino Policy & Politics Initiative at UCLA. She is a civil
rights attorney and testified before the House of
Representatives on voting in America. Learn more about your ad
